25 Kingpin's Empire

Kingpin's Building (Kingpin's Office)

The arrest of Kingpin didn't go as smooth as the police officers expected, as they were facing attacks from all the criminals under Kingpin's payroll. The police officers in charge of Kingpin arrest was lucky that they were accompanied by the members of the Defenders but they are under heavily fire from all side.

One of the most dangerous person under Kingpin's payroll is Bullseye a psychopathic assassin who does not possess any superpower but he has a amazing skill to use any objects as a lethal projectile weapon to kill anyone. He also has supernatural marksmanship and is able accurately reflect all attacks towards his target.

Daredevil dodge an attack from one of the criminal armed with a electric baton before countering with a baton hit to the head sending the man falling to the ground unconscious. The Defenders and police officers manage to capture Kingpin but the criminals are coming in waves to rescue him.

"You are not getting out of here alive if you arrest me" Kingpin say confidently.

Jessica slap Kingpin's face in annoyance shouting "Shut up!" as Colleen deflect several daggers aimed towards Jessica with her samurai sword saying "That man is annoying".

Bullseye start to get annoyed since his attack is not dealing any injures to any of the Defenders.

Ironfist block another criminal before returning an attack by punching his chest sending the criminal flying back crashing into two other criminal.

Then Spiderman came swinging in from behind Bullseye shouting "Tally Ho!!" and delivered a kick on his back sending him flying toward Daredevil. Daredevil follow up Spiderman's attack by using his baton and striking Bullseye's head hard sending him crashing into the wall. "Awesome move DD!" Spiderman said after seeing Daredevil's attack.

Bullseye seeing that he is surrounded started throwing daggers and any objects he could get his hands on hurling continuously towards all the members of the Defenders. As the barrage of projectiles approach them, the Defenders did their best to block and dodge all the projectiles but they were still hit by the attack as they protect their vitals.

Bullseye noticing that his attacks landed on the Defenders body sneered in confidence saying "I never miss my target". Thinking to himself that he has finally fatally injure or kill the Defenders but his confidence didn't last long as it slowly turn into shock.

Jessica looked all over her body in surprise saying "The fabric of our costume is so thin and light that i tend to forget that it is bullet and knife proof. I always thought Nightwing is joking" with everyone agreeing with her statement.

"Don't get distracted!" Daredevil say as he saw Bullseye climbing through the hole in the wall. Spiderman exclaimed "Damn he is resilient".

Daredevil run towards Bullseye and used his baton to hit Bullseye continuously sending him staggering backward but he is not able to hit Bullseye unconscious. Bullseye slam his head against Daredevil's head sending staggering backward, Bullseye smirking replied "I have adamantium laced skeleton so stopping me won't be easy" as he kick Daredevil away from him.

"We need end this fight soon, Nightwing need our help" Spiderman say to the others as he jump towards Bullseye. "Since you have unbreakable bone, I just need to stop you from moving" Spiderman say as he punch Bullseye continuously all over before sending him crashing into the wall. After that, Spiderman used his webbing to encase Bullseye in a cocoon.

As the Defenders incapacitate all the criminals in Kingpin's office with the help of Spiderman's webbing. Kingpin keep trying to tempt them with money and power for the Defenders to release him "I will give you all one billion dollar each to look the other way!". "Shut up! You talk to much!" Daredevil say feeling very annoyed with Kingpin.

Spiderman quickly urged the other "Hurry up guys ! We need to go down and help Nightwing! I will bring Kingpin down to the police officers to be put into custody first. I will catch up with all of you later".

Suddenly there is a call from the Wing Wave "Defenders is everything okay upstair? I am on the way up".

"Nightwing we have captured Kingpin. Spiderman has been urging us to quickly come to your aid. Have the matter been dealt with?" Ironfist ask in a concern voice.

"Yes, I have. I will call Chief Pratchett to inform about the situation. Good job Defenders!" I replied.

Spiderman with a concern asked "What happen to Norman?"

I slowly replied "There is no other way!"

After a few seconds of silence Spiderman said in a sad voice "I see...."

"Lets deliver Kingpin to the police. I will have a good rest tonight knowing that we have made a huge difference today" Jessica upbeat say.

"Yes we did" Spiderman declared.

"This a is a huge victory, thank you everyone. I am glad to have join this team" Daredevil say with emotionally. (Eveyone in the room stared at Daredevil with their mouth open) (Luke and Me in WingWave was also shocked with what Daredevil have said).

Luke chuckle before saying "Damn man! It is weird to hear you say that. I can feel goosebumps all over my body. I was expecting Spidey to say that rather than you" as everyone laughed as Daredevil brood (Like Batman always do).

"Our job will not be over but at least with Kingpin in jail the streets in Hell's Kitchen and New York will be much safer" Colleen say in a matter in fact way.

"Lets go to celebrate tonight! I know a good Chinese restaurant that you guys will love! I am paying!" Ironfist say enthusiasm with the others agreeing. "Lets burn a hole in your wallet!" shouted Jessica as the others laugh.

Triskelion somewhere in the world

Nick Fury, Director of S.H.I.E.L.D, stood in the command center of the Triskelion as Agent Maria Hill came in. "Director Fury there is private call for you from Agent Coulson" reported Agent Hill.

"Thank you, Agent Hill. I will take the call in the mission briefing room" replied Fury.

In the mission briefing room, he received the call.

Looking at the monitor, Fury saw Agent Coulson. "At ease Coulson. So what do you have to report?".

"Our investigation on Nightwing has proof to be difficult . We have not been able to find the place where he hang his cape" replied Agent Coulson.

Frowning Fury replied "You call me just to report on this?".

Quickly Coulson answered "No sir! We are able to find his contacts and the peoples that he has been spending time with".

"Oh really. So who are they?" Fury asked curiously.

"With a help of a certain source, we have determine that Nightwing have contact with Captain George Stacy from the New York police precinct. Other than that, Nightwing has created a team of super individuals to help him. They have been assisting the police officers as consultant but this is not public knowledge and has been keep a secret by the higher up in the police department. So far only New York Chief of Police, Chief Pratchett with Captain George Stacy acting as his middleman" Coulson replied.

"Who are they? Are they in the Avenger Initiative plan?" Fury asked.

"They are called The Defenders and they consist of Colleen Wing, Daniel 'Danny' Rand, Daredevil, Luke Cage, Jessica Jones and Spiderman. They still under evaluation but from initial evaluation they are not suitable to be in the program, sir" Coulson answered.

Thinking for a few second to himself, Fury finally ask "Who is your source?".

Coulson replied "Her name is Daisy Johnson, she is a hacker and she is an expert in finding super powered individuals and vigilantes. I am thinking of bringing her into SHIELD to cultivate her into an agent".

"Just do what you like, I trust you to make your judgement. Anything else?" said Fury

After hesitating for a few second Coulson replied in an uneasy voice "Yes,sir! Err.... Once we approach Nightwing, errrr....she want to be there to meet him too".

Feeling surprised by the request Fury asked "Why she want to meet him? Does she know him?".

Sweating bullets Coulson slowly replied "Errr... Yes, Nightwing has rescued her before but she does not know him in a personal level. As for the reason.. errr... ahem.. She think he is hot....".

"I see. I will think about it. Report to me as soon as possible. I need to have a talk with him. Focus on Captain George Stacy" Fury replied with Coulson replying "Yes, sir!".
